Oops: VP Mike Pence missing from some Michigan ballots
AP NEWS ^ | 16 September 2020

Posted on 09/16/2020 11:03:54 AM PDT by BlackFemaleArmyColonel

Local election clerks in Michigan downloading absentee ballots for residents overseas were given ballots that listed Trump’s Republican running mate as Jeremy Cohen, who is the Libertarian Party candidate for vice president, the Michigan Secretary of State’s office said.

Vice President Mike Pence wasn’t on the ballot next to Trump. Cohen, whose nickname is “Spike,” is running with Jo Jorgensen.

It was a “temporary error” that was fixed within 90 minutes Tuesday, said Tracy Wimmer, a spokeswoman for Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson.

“Approximately 400 ballots were downloaded by clerks during this period; we don’t know how many were sent,” Wimmer said.

Clerks were told to reissue correct ballots and tell voters to ignore the erroneous ballot if they received one.

“If a voter does happen to return the incorrect ballot instead of the correct ballot, it will still count. The clerk will be instructed to duplicate a vote for Trump onto a ballot for Trump/Pence,” Wimmer said.

The city clerk in Livonia, Susan Nash, said her office hasn’t downloaded any erroneous ballots, but she has heard about the problem.

“I think it’s embarrassing. ... It’s just one more thing for clerks to take care of,” Nash told the Detroit Free Press.

Odd how these little “oopsies” never seem to happen to the Democrats.

What could go wrong?

And these people want America to trust them to run a mail-in ballot election and to run the country? Call in some 2nd graders to improve and upgrade the system for them.

That was no accident. That was state-sponsored election interference.

There is no “Oops” about it. It was intentional.

My Town Clerk just sent me a second application for an absentee ballot. I wonder if that means I can vote twice.

Vice President Mike Pence wasn’t on the ballot next to Trump.

The Qtards say he's a bad guy, a pedophile, a devil
worshipper who eat babies and shoots up adrenochromes.

SMH.

Is this part of the plan to steal the election?

People involved should be arrested. Screw the “mistake” garbage.

As God as my witness, my dog never ate my homework no matter how many times I tried to use that excuse.
